New self-service intake tool automates new hire data collection, reducing administrative overhead and modernizing the employee experience for HR teams.
CLINTON TOWNSHIP, Mich., Dec. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Essium Labs Inc., a leading provider of compliant workforce management technology, today announced the release of Quick Launch, a streamlined intake feature for its Xenqu platform. Designed to alleviate the administrative burden on Human Resources departments, Quick Launch empowers new hires to self-initiate their onboarding journey, ensuring a seamless transition from "applicant" to "active employee" without requiring manual data entry from HR staff.
For HR teams—particularly those in healthcare, retail, manufacturing, and other high-volume industries—manual onboarding processes create bottlenecks that delay time-to-productivity and increase the risk of data entry errors. Quick Launch solves this challenge by allowing candidates to enter the workflow immediately via a secure web link, QR code, or on-site kiosk.
"The modern workforce expects a digital, mobile-first experience from the moment they accept an offer, and HR teams need tools that allow them to focus on people, not paperwork," said Ben Olson, CEO of Essium Labs. "With Quick Launch, we are removing the administrative friction from Day One. By allowing the new hire to initiate the process, organizations can ensure data accuracy, accelerate start dates, and free up their HR professionals to focus on culture, training, and retention."
How Quick Launch Empowers HR Operations:
- Automated Personnel File Creation: When a new hire submits their details via Quick Launch, Xenqu automatically generates a compliant digital personnel record. The system instantly triggers the assignment of essential documents, policy acknowledgments, and compliance tasks based on the specific role, department, or location.
- Streamlined Rehire Processing: For industries with seasonal workforces or returning alumni, Quick Launch utilizes multi-factor matching to identify existing records. This intelligent linking prevents duplicate employee profiles and maintains a cohesive history of employment without administrative research.
- Flexible Deployment: HR teams can utilize Quick Launch across various touchpoints—from QR codes at career fair booths and open interview days to tablets in facility lobbies, assuring a standardized process regardless of how the employee is hired.
- Enhanced Data Integrity: By shifting initial data entry to the employee via a secure, mobile-optimized interface, organizations significantly reduce errors associated with manual transcription and administrative data entry.
Risk Mitigation and Compliance
Quick Launch is fully integrated with Xenqu's rigorous compliance engine. As soon as an onboarding workflow is initiated, the platform can automatically manage critical requirements such as I-9 forms, integrated E-Verify processing, and state-specific tax withholding. This ensures that even the fastest hires remain fully compliant with federal and local labor laws.
"Quick Launch provides the perfect balance of speed and control," added Marisa Schober, VP of Product at Essium Labs. "It allows organizations to move fast to secure top talent while maintaining the strict standardization and compliance oversight that Risk and HR Directors demand."
